Hello, everyone,
I'm new to the forum and this group. I turned in my CCW application about a week ago and now I'm just waiting...
In the meantime I'm looking into self-defense insurance. I've looked at USCCA, CCW Safe, Second Call and a couple of others. (I haven't been able to find anything about this in the forum, so please point me in the right direction if this post doesn't belong here.)
What do you recommend for self-defense insurance? I have googled the major companies and I've examined comparisons of their service online, but some of the information seems like it might be a couple of years old. I really want to get something, but I want to know what is best. Right now I'm leaning toward CCW Safe, but they all seem to have their pros and cons.
Any thoughts?
Paul

Take a look at ACLDN (Armed Citizens Legal Defense Network). I'll let you do the research, but they should at least be in the comparison between the many options that are out there.

Agreed. I really like the continuing education aspect of ACLDN. Monthly newsletter and then an annual DVD or book. When I joined I got all of the DVDs they'd done in previous years.

I've had Second Call Defense for a year or so and have been happy with it, though thank God I haven't needed it so I can't say what it's like if you do need it. The information in the news letters they send out seems to be good and useful; they're really big on not giving the police any more information than what's essential (i.e., I was in fear for my life and acted lawfully in self defense; I will cooperate fully with you when my lawyer gets here). I like the idea of having a 24 hour legal hotline I can call. I have no knowledge of the other ones you mention.

++++ 1 ACLDN ... I've been a member since 2010. Keep in mind it is NOT insurance. I would encourage you to call Gila Hayes and visit with her. She is VERY helpful and can explain details regarding ACDLN and what it involves. One other thing of note. The BoD and expert witnesses (who would testify on your behalf at no cost) include Mas Ayoob, John Farnham, Dennis Tueller, Marty Hayes (kind of recognize those names? ) Unsure who the insurance companies would have as expert witnesses ....
